Happy #fridaysews, friends! In this December sewing catch-up, I’m chatting through what I’ve been working on lately, what’s been on my sewing table, and the kinds of quick, cozy projects that make this season so fun. This is truly my favorite time of the week—just hanging out and talking sewing—so grab your project and sew with me while I do a little end-of-year check-in. I also share what I’m wearing (my Ellie and Mac Staycation Dress), plus I point you to a few patterns and ideas that are perfect for gift sewing and kid sewing—like the FREE Ellie and Mac Grow with Me PJs and their super-handy 10 Minute Fabric Gift Bag. If you’re in a tote bag era, I mention Simplicity S9308 and my tutorial where I show how I line that tote to give it a more finished, sturdy feel. And if you’ve been curious about Wild Seed Patterns, I call out the deadline to shop (last day is Jan. 10, 2025), so you don’t miss it.
